For over a century Bridgnorth Cliff Railway has been transporting the people of Bridgnorth up and down the 111 ft sandstone cliffs that separate High Town from Low Town and the River Severn. It is first and foremost a working railway; its importance to both the townspeople of Bridgnorth and to visitors to the town is undiminished by age.

The railway operates two carriages on parallel tracks. Connected by steel cables, the carriages serve to counterbalance each other - as one rises to the top station, the other runs to the bottom station. The cars are now powered by an electric winding engine, but were originally driven by a system of water balance, each carriage carrying water ballast in a tank beneath the passenger compartment.

Quintisensually English. Good capture.

This photo was taken in the Autumn of 2003. Not only does it show the wonderful colours of that season, but also the eyecatching reflections in the canal. I was out on my pushbike when I saw this scene and have never regreted taking the photo. There is a carpark by the bridge and you can take a relaxed walk along the towpath to the Pub.

We are fortunate here in the Midlands to have so many lovely canals.

Hampton Court, Herefordshire (Difficult to find) is a castle on the meadows of the river Lugg, backed by a steep wooded escarpment and surrounded by woodland and grounds of 1,000 acres. Founded by King Henry in the early 15th century the castle has been completely restored. The Van Kampen Gardens at Hampton Court are spectacular and although a recent development, are now receiving national recognition. The estate workshops are staffed by our skilled craftsmen whose high standard of workmanship can be seen throughout the gardens and in the castle.

In the churchyard is the ground-level stump of a Canadian cypress tree which was known as the Mourning Tree. The stump is carved with the date, 1996, when the tree was felled and in the angle formed by two paths that went round it there is a tablet inscribed: 'This tree marks the grave of John Dyke, who was hanged for rick burning in 1830 at the last public hanging at Penenden Heath. Subsequently, it was found that he was not guilty of the crime.' In fact, years after Dyke was hanged, another man made a deathbed confession to the crime. He was buried on the opposite side of the church, so that the innocent Dyke's unjustly maligned spirit should not be offended by his proximity.

This photo looks across to the old Farmers Arms Pub (Ex Poorhouse), now being changed into a restaurant. Behind is Kempsey Common a place of real beauty and abundant wildlife, spoilt only by the M5 Motorway’s noise. On the horizon can be seen the Malvern Hills.

Kingsbury Water Park has 15 lakes situated in over 600 acres of country park.
